TOPIC: Paper or Plastic?

I hope you're not burning the plastic bags. That releases major toxins into the air. I have switched to reusable bags, for the most part. I also reuse any plastic bags I do get as trash bags for small cans like in the bathroom or bedrooms.

Reusable bags are fine if you remember to take them with you when you go shopping! I don't care about the cost if I have to pay for a plastic bag, but I don't want to store hundreds at home. Now I take spares to the local thrift store, who appreciate them more than I do.

I live in the northeast and most places use plastic bags. I haven't switched to reusable bags because I use the plastic bags as trash bags for my burnables. Living as far out in the country as I do makes burning trash a necessity, so that's how I deal with the plastic nasties.
